    Lool why is it they have their token legends like Mac Dre and e40 but literally not one person outside of the bay knows a song by either?

    Iamsu:laff:

    Lil B is the only saving grace

    you're so disrespectful richie rich, spice 1, rappin 4 tay, ant banks, clyde carson, celly cel. mac mall. andre nickatina, paris are all legends. just because they have a different sound doesn't mean they're trash it just means you're a dumbass

    literal who's for people who have no idea. they are bay area legends, it's sounds like you're hating on something you don't even understand. so where's the debate?

    i mean i just find it curious that bay area's rap music scene seems so like self sufficient and encapsulated i mean obviously someone like nas is a NY legend but people all over the world like him snoop is a long beach legend etc
    the only bay area rappers people outside of the bay area know are mac dre and e40 and they're only really known as bay area legends ppl dont actually like their music im just curious like what is it about bay area music that makes it so appealing to the locals and so unappealing to everyone else

    are you from the bay?

    The Bay is the most overlooked place in rap and it's sad cause they got legends like Mac Dre,E-40, Mistah Fab, The Worlds Freshest, etc.
